Pumpkin Spice Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich
[Vegan]

To Make the Cookie:

1. In a large mixing bowl, add your butter and microwave until melted, then add you sugar, brown sugar, pumpkin, vanilla, and hot water, then mix all your dry ingredients together
2. Add dry ingredients: flour , baking soda, baking powder, salt, and spices.
3. Mix everything together really well and then fold in chocolate chips
4. Place in the refrigerator for 20 minutes, just so it's easier to form balls and pre-heat the oven to 370°F.
5. Use a non-stick cookie sheet or spray one with non-stick spray and form large balls about the size of a golf ball. Place them on the cookie sheet and smash them down into a large cookie shape.
6. Bake for 15-17 minutes and let cool.

To Make the Ice Cream Sandwiches:

1. In a small bowl, melt your chocolate chips
2. Spread if over half of the top cookie.
3. Let the cookie sit for about an hour so the chocolate can firm up or place in freezer for 10 minutes to speed up the process. The cookie will have a chewy texture after being in the freezer.
4. Scoop out your 1/2 cup of ice cream and set it on the bottom cookie. Use the back of a spatula to flatten it. This will be easier to do if the ice cream is soft.
5. Place the top cookie on and then place the extra chocolate chips around the edges.
